Description

Don’t miss the eagerly anticipated epic new fantasy from Christopher Paolini—Murtagh!

A new adventure hatches in Book One of the Inheritance Cycle, perfect for fans of Lord of the Rings! This New York Times bestselling series has sold over 40 million copies and is an international fantasy sensation. 

"Christopher Paolini is a true rarity." —The Washington Post

When fifteen-year-old Eragon finds a polished blue stone in the forest, he thinks it is the lucky discovery of a poor farm boy. But when the stone brings a dragon hatchling, Eragon soon realizes he has stumbled upon a legacy nearly as old as the Empire itself.

Overnight his simple life is shattered, and, gifted with only an ancient sword, a loyal dragon, and sage advice from an old storyteller, Eragon is soon swept into a dangerous tapestry of magic, glory, and power. Now his choices could save—or destroy—the Empire.

    I’m ashamed that I ever liked the movie. The movie misses so much of the book. I love this book series

  • Movie rating…

    The movie was ok, but I don’t like how they switched parts of the movie. Like Brom’s death. Brom was supposed to die by the Ra’Zac but got killed by Durza. The movie absolutely sucked.

  • Takes a while to read, but worth it!

    So many things happens in this book that, I’m taking a vacation before starting the next in the series. I need a 12 hour nap, but the story was amazing! The writing never felt boring, good characters and dragons of course!

  • I love this book!

    I love how the author put in multiple characters and made it very interesting and how I couldn’t put this book down at all. I really hope he puts more books in the series.

    TO ADULTS ONLY:
    Hello to the adults who are reading this OK so kids like me are making reviews and some adults can get a little off here and say things that kids might copy and they might get in trouble so please let everybody don’t say anything like that so we can keep this place as safe as school friendly also kid friendly.

    TO KIDS: DO NOT copy people!

    I love dragons so so much!!
    So for my birthday, my brother bought me the first two books of the Inheritance Cycle.
    I’m only 13, so I found it a bit hard to read.
    Maybe a little old for me, but super cool.
    The world I suddenly found myself in was epic. Alagaësia is so whimsical and large!!
    I thought it was something different to have an evil king being the ruler. Interesting idea.
    I love Roran, and Saphira’s good too. My favorite character is probably Murtagh though. He’s fun!
    Arya is cool too, but maybe a bit too tough.
    Why, Eragon, do you have to like her??
    She’s so hard to get! 🤦🏼‍♀️
    It was a good story overall, and clearly Christopher Paolini is VERY talented.
    I thought it was creative to have completely different languages. But.. . It does get a little bit annoying when you HAVE to go in the back of the book, look up the phrase to understand what they’re saying. Often times I don’t even cuz it’s annoying.
    But really good. Talented and very well written.

  • Title fit the book

    Is it just me or are the dragons bald? It’s a good book. Don’t know why they look bald to me though.
